title: A wearable healthcare system for cardiac signal monitoring using conductive textile electrodes.
abstract: Accurate cardiac signal monitoring feasible for long-term monitoring is important for a practical, cost-effective health monitoring system. In this study, we propose a wearable healthcare system based on conductive fabric-based electrodes allowing monitoring of electrocardiogram (ECG) waveforms and demonstrated the potential for arrhythmia detection using the system. The measurement system uses conductive fabric-based electrodes arranged in a modified bipolar electrode configuration on the chest area of the patient. An adaptive impulse correlation filter (AICF) algorithm and a band pass filter to enable accurate R-peak detection in noisy environments.
